Brian Anderson on Air America radio

Since we've struck the red-hot iron with a Coulter discussion, I'd like to continue on to the topic of a conversation that Mr. T. and I recently had: Air America Radio. Here is Brian Anderson's take: "Air America's left-wing answer to conservative talk radio is failing."

Anderson is the author of South Park Conservatives: The Revolt Against Liberal Media Bias which has been getting some press lately (It's #61 on Amazon as I type this). I haven't had a chance to read it and form an opinion. Chapeau tilt: Instapundit.

I'm confident AAR will stay afloat. They seem to have a lot of sugar daddies, and there definitely is a market that is underserved. New York and LA are the largest media markets, after all.

The worrisome note in Anderson's piece is that some are looking to revive the now abandoned FCC "Fairness Doctrine" and apply it to talk radio (and blogs?) It was a bad idea 30 years ago and it would be a bad (and illiberal) idea now.
